Molecular phylogenetic analysis of whey acidic proteins/secretory leukoproteinase inhibiting peptides-related sequences (A) Unrooted maximum parsimony network and (B) Outgroup rooted Bayesian analysis. Representative toxin and nontoxin sequences are labeled. In order to minimize confusion, all proteins sequences are referred to by their SWISS-PROT accession numbers (http://www.expasy.org/cgi-bin/sprot-search-ful). Snake venom sequences are in bold.
